Restless Legs Syndrome: Management and Guidance

Clinical RLS education from international specialists

In collaboration with World Sleep Society, the International Restless Legs Syndrome Study Group developed a free, on-demand course to help non-specialists feel confident identifying and managing RLS in their patients.

The three-hour course is designed for flexibility and immediate clinical relevance, supporting providers who encounter patients with sleep-related symptoms.

Through brief expert-led educational units, participants explore diagnostic criteria, treatment guidelines, augmentation, and case-based discussions, along with assessments and supplemental resources for special population considerations including pregnancy and pediatric care.

The course reflects World Sleep Society’s ongoing commitment to expanding accessible, globally relevant education that strengthens sleep health knowledge across healthcare disciplines.
